Letters of Spies — How British captured Delhi in 1857
Little is known about the Revolt of 1857 from the rebels perspective. But there is a large body of official records, diaries and personal narratives of the British officials and others who witnessed the ‘Mutiny’. Even though these mainly contain the heavily biased British version, they also contain significant details about the rebels and their cause. For more than a decade the author has been collecting rare documents (in Persian, Urdu, English and Hindi) of the period of 1857 rebellion from India and outside.

ब्राह्मणवादियों के धमाके, मुसलमानों को फाँसी Brahmanvaadion ke dhamake, Musalmanon ko phaansi (Hindi)
ब्लास्ट कर के मुसलमानों पर दोष डालने का ब्राह्मणवादी खेल—-अत्यंत लोकप्रिय पुस्तक ‘करकरे के हत्यारे कौन?’ और ‘26/11 की जांच—न्यायपालिका भी क्यों नाकाम रही?’ के लेखक, पूर्व शीर्ष पुलिस अधिकारी एसएम मुशरिफ़ की यह एक और किताब है। इस किताब का विषय है देश भर में होनेवाले बम धमाकों के पीछे ब्राह्मणवादी छल-प्रपंच और बेगुनाह मुसलमानों पर दोष मढ़ना। अदालतों में दायर कई आरोपपत्रों और उनके द्वारा दिए गए कुछ महत्वपूर्ण निर्णयों की शब्द-दर-शब्द जांच के बाद, और प्रासंगिक अवधियों की प्रेस कतरनों के एक विशाल संग्रह को देखने के बाद, लेखक इस निष्कर्ष पर पहुंचे हैं कि 2002 के बाद से अधिकांश बम विस्फोटों में आरएसएस, अभिनव भारत, बजरंग दल, जय वंदे मातरम, सनातन संस्था आदि जैसे ब्राह्मणवादी संगठनों का हाथ था। लेकिन आईबी, एनआईए और राज्यों में आतंकवाद निरोधक दस्तों ने, ब्राह्मणवादी तत्वों के सक्रिय समर्थन और मीडिया द्वारा ब्राह्मणवादियों की ओर इशारा करनेवाले महत्वपूर्ण सुराग़ों को जान-बूझकर दबाने के लिए बेगुनाह मुसलमानों पर आरोप लगाया। यहां तक कि कुछ अदालतें भीं प्रभावित हुईं। कुछ अदालतें मीडिया के प्रचार से प्रभावित थीं तो कुछ अभियोजन पक्ष द्वारा गुमराह। लेखक ने सुझाव दिया है कि यदि ऐसे सभी मामलों का पुनरावलोकन कुछ वरिष्ठ न्यायिक अधिकारियों द्वारा किया जाए और उनमें से संदिग्ध लोगों की एक स्वतंत्र और निष्पक्ष एजेंसी द्वारा पुन: जांच की जाए, तो यह पता चलेगा कि इन सभी घटनाओं में ब्राह्मणवादी संलिप्त हैं, उन घटनाओं में भी, जिनमें मुसलमानों को दोषी ठहराया जा चुका है और सज़ा सुनाई जा चुकी है।

Savarkar Unmasked
Quote by Khushwant Singh: [Savarkar] in his presidential speech at the Mahasabha conference in Ahmedabad in 1937, said: ‘As it is, there are two antagonistic nations living side by side in India’…The Hindu Mahasabha had no problem in joining the Muslim League Government in Sind and Bengal. He was also the supporter of the princely order and thought it would not be a bad idea if the King of Nepal became the Hindu emperor of India…If you want to recheck what I have written, take a look at Shamsul Islam’s book on Savarkar. —Khushwant Singh
Gujarat Behind The Curtain (revised edition)

Towards a Sociology of Islam
This work attempts to critically examine the empirical method adopted in the modern social sciences evolving in the historical context of post-medieval European society. It highlights the points of conflict that this method has with the Islamic worldview which created and sustained a distinct Islamic society on the Madinan model. After outlining the singular features of Islamic society, it argues for adopting a new method based on the primacy of Islamic criteria of truth and reality.

गोलवलकर की ‘हम या हमारी राष्ट्रीयता की परिभाषा’ —एक आलोचनात्मक समीक्षा
यह पुस्तक आरएसएस के प्रकाशनों और दस्तावेज़ों की रोशनी में गोलवलकर के जीवन और विचारों के बारे में वास्तविक सच्चाइयों को सामने लाने का एक प्रयास है। इस पुस्तक में गोलवलकर की 1939 में लिखी “वी ऑर अवर नेशनहुड डिफ़ाइंड” पुस्तक भी है जिसका हिंदी अनुवाद यहाँ प्रस्तुत है। यह पुस्तक 1947 के बाद उपलब्ध नहीं रही है।
We are witnessing a concerted attempt by the RSS to establish MS Golwalkar as the ‘prophet of a resurgent India,’ ‘a saint,’ ‘the best son of Bharat mata,’ and the ‘biggest gift to Hindu society in the 20th Century,’… This inspite of the fact that Golwalkar, throughout his life, remained committed to the concept of Hindutva which meant an inherent faith in Casteism, Racism and Imperialism. He stood for the establishment of a Hindu rashtra, or nation, where minorities like Muslims and Christians could exist only as second class citizens. This book attempts to put across actual facts about Golwalkar’s life and beliefs in the light of his original writings, publications of the RSS, documents available in its archives and many other RSS documents the writer collected over the last 35 years from different parts of the country, especially the original text of his book We or Our Nationhood Defined (1939) which is being fully reproduced in this book. It is the most important text in order to understand the RSS’ concept of Hindu state, and has not been available to the public after 1947.
Godse’s Children: Hindutva Terror in India
The book ably documents evidence of saffron terror. — A.G. Noorani in Frontline
Hindutva terror has finally emerged. It was on 6 April, 2006 when Nanded witnessed a bomb blast at the house of Laxman Rajkondwar, a longtime RSS activist, killing his son and another Sangh activist. The blast brought to the fore the systematic manner in which people associated with RSS and allied outfits were engaged in making and storing explosives, imparting arms training and planning to bomb minorities as part of their mission to establish Hindu Rashtra in India. Five years later, investigating agencies are in the know of the involvement of Hindutva supremacists in dozens of earlier and later blasts like Malegaon and Samjhauta Express. The role of international linkages and networks of different Hindutva formations in collecting funds, mobilising resources and supporting the cause has added further ferocity to this project. The present book, the first comprehensive treatment of the subject, shows that Hindutva terror is not a mere regional or rare phenomenon. Apart from bringing forth the commonality of tactics used by these terror modules, the book also looks at the phenomenon historically and presents hitherto unexplored evidence. It also underlines the Himalayan task which awaits the investigating agencies as they are yet to nab any of the masterminds, planners, financiers and ideologues of these terror attacks despite ample evidence.

Secrets of the Kashmir Valley: My journey through the conflict between India and Pakistan
“Qazi skillfully connects us to the intense, complex and remarkably strong women of Kashmir. Their fascinating and emotionally touching stories are deeply moving and need to be heard.”
ROSS KAUFFMAN, Academy Award-winning film-maker of “Born Into Brothels”
In this timely and important book, Farhana Qazi traces the lives of women in the deeply divided Kashmir Valley and shows how they have survived a 60-plus-year conflict. With unique access, Qazi is an American storyteller who travels extensively through the region to interview mothers of martyrs, militants’ wives, prisoners, protestors, and political activists. Her evocative reporting and extensive interactions brings to life these women’s stories—their individual oral histories make up a collective chronicle of suffering and struggle.
Ultimately, this is a hopeful book. With strong voices and will power, the women of Kashmir are changing their society. These reformers are the people leading the way forward.
This crucial book on Kashmir is a brilliant and thought-provoking work. Qazi’s unique perspective on Kashmir and deep passion for the women she writes about make this a definitive account of a proud people.”

Who Killed Karkare? The Real Face of Terrorism in India
Political violence, or terrorism, by State as well as by non- State actors has a long history in India. The allegation that sections of and individual Indian Muslims indulged in “terrorism” surfaced for the first time with the ascent of the Hindutva forces in mid-1990s and became state policy with the BJP’s coming to power at the Centre. With even “secular” media joining the role as stenographers of security agencies, this became an accepted fact so much so that common Indians and even many Muslims started believing in this false propaganda. This book, by a former senior police officer, with a distinguished career that included unearthing the Telgi scam, peeps behind the propaganda screen, using material mostly in the public domain as well as his long police experience. It comes out with some startling facts and analysis, the first of its kind, to expose the real actors behind the so-called “Islamic terrorism” in India whose greatest feat was to murder the Maharashtra ATS chief Hemant Karkare who dared to expose these forces and paid with his life for his courage and commitment to truth. While unearthing the conspiracy behind the murder of Karkare, this book takes a hard look at some of the major incidents attributed to “Islamic terrorism” in India and finds them baseless.
